ICS and Recursion

Not really understanding the need for ICS to understand recursion.

Doing the MSpress book, and on 4-57 4-58 they have you enable ICS, then perform some queries to understand recursion.

I changed the NIC's primary DNS server on server2 to point to the IP of server1, and this had recursion working just fine.

Basically, I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything important here.
Currently focusing on my 70-291
Just getting started!

    I think they're assuming that you don't have an active internet connection and DHCP setup. When you configure ICS your server 2 is receiving an ip address and server 1 is automatically configured as the DNS server. If you've statically assigned server 1 as server 2's DNS server and they're both connected by a router that manages DHCP then you're fine.
